Genesee Cream Ale is a cream ale produced by the Genesee Brewing Company in Rochester, NY. The brewery was known as High Falls Brewing Company from 2000 to 2009. The beer was introduced in 1960.
Genesee's brewmasters take an extra step of kräusening, a process in which finished beer is primed for carbonation with wort instead of sugar.
Genesee Cream Ale has won Gold medals in 1990 & 1991, Silver medals in 1987, 1988, 1993, 1994 & 2005, and Bronze in 1995, 2002, & 2004 at the Great American Beer Festival.
Famous quotes containing the words cream and/or ale:
“After a few months’ acquaintance with European “coffee,” one’s mind weakens, and his faith with it, and he begins to wonder if the rich beverage of home, with its clotted layer of yellow cream on top of it, is not a mere dream after all, and a thing which never existed.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Where village statesmen talked with looks profound,
And news much older than their ale went round.”
—Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)
